EXCLUSIVE: Is Andy Cohen in Trouble With Bravo?

In our latest article from star blogger and Real Housewives expert LynnNChicago, we discover that changes are afoot for Bravo head honcho Andy Cohen.

"Andy Cohen has been demoted and is no longer in charge of programming at Bravo. According to sources, he is now merely the face and voice of the network but the network is also considering replacing him on Watch What Happens Live next season.

Viewers have mixed feelings about Bravo's Andy Cohen and the powers that be at Bravo are considering replacing him altogether.

Viewers provided great feedback as they enjoyed Jay Mohr's guest host appearance on the show back in June and Bravo is considering offering Jay the job of host on it's late night live talk fest featuring guests such as Bravo cast members and celebrity fans of Bravo's Housewives shows."

“That is totally inaccurate. Andy Cohen is still very much our Executive Vice President of Original Programming and Development and remains the host of WWHL, which comes back for Season Five in September.”

That is not right…Andy had nothing to do with Russell’s private life…Russell had demons way before this season…If your hands are not clean then don’t blame someone else…I love Andy!!! He is the best!!!

I like Andy but his obvious favoritism towards the brunettes this season really po’d me. His treatment of Alex was deplorable. The fact he signed Stanger for 3 more years… I don’t know I just don’t know .. Also, Jay did okay, but I like Andy as well on WWH.

can’t answer your poll, the question should be, ‘should Andy Cohen be replaced with someone with morals and decorum, who understands not to exploit people’s children with the camera, have unstable or sociopathic people return the next season when viewers clearly can’t stand them, employ grifters, frauds, and other various and sundry criminals who are portrayed as ‘wealthy’ when everything they own is borrowed or stolen or defrauded out of someone…’

So true. Reminds me of something Mario Singer once said about a castmate. Something like “your 15 minutes of fame has gone to your head.” Now let me think. Who did he say that to? Oh right. It was Jill Zarin. Yup, Lynn is turning into Jill Zarin right in front of our eyes.

Would not be a big loss to Bravo. It is sooooooo obvious that Andy girl has her favorites when it comes to the housewives. He loves the drunk(Ramona) the poor (Sonja) and the poor white trash (Alex). I havent watched WWHN for awhile now. Didnt like the prejudice.

I love Andy and would hate to see him replaced. I do wonder tho if it was his decision to keep Sonja and Ramona on the Housewives of New York and fire Jill and Kelly. Sonja and Ramona are both obnoxious and disgusting. I won’t be watching without Jill and Kelly, but I don’t mind saying adios to alex and Simon.

Lynn, I must have initially missed this post since it’s dated August 22. I REALLY like Andy, he is great at Bravo, the only way I would want him to leave is if he would replace Regis Philbin. Live with KELLY and ANDY! He could always host specials and reunions on Bravo.

The only thing I dislike about Andy, is he shows favorites.From each franchise, he clearly liked some better and even used excuses that some women took things more personal, so he was careful. In OC he had no probelm talking about Jeannne’s children or Alexis children in a bad way. Or talking about Alexsis or Jeanne. Yet, he let Vicki and Tamara slide. Vicki is one of the ones he mentioned taking things personal. He never confronted her about two timing Donn or dating a deadbeat DUI dad. In New York, he favored LouAnne and Jill. LouAnne’s daughter made a very ugly racist tape, but she would not “allow” that on the show.Jill showed her true colors beginning at season 2, but he never called her on it. In New Jersey, he had a mintful of things to call Caroline Manzo on. Her adult sons acting like they were 8 and 10. Plus their treatment of others as well as illegal doings. Same for AL Sr. Yet Andy would rather hate on Teresa. He sure fell all over Melissa, Joe and Kathy and Rich. If he cobntrolled the show, if someone did not like the storyline (like LouAnne and Caroline) they should have been off. I bet firing Jill and Kelly was not his idea. Kelly also got away with a lot. Probably no problem for him to fire Alex

The only thing I dislike about Andy is the favoritism he shows. In New York, it was Jill and Lou Anne. But he pandered to Kelly a lot. In Orange County, it has always been Vicki and later Tamara along with Vicki. In New Jersey, Caroline Manzo. He later added Melissa and Kathy to that list. These people are given a pass for wahtever they do. If the questions get too hard at the reunions, they threatne to walk off, and he drops the questions. He has never treated the housewives equally. I read one time where he said he felt Vicki and Jill took it more personal so he was easier with them. Not a good excuse. Other than that, I like him

Andy needs enlightening. He commented tonight about Santorum eating at Chick-fil-A and that he doesn’t like people who hate gay people. If Andy thinks that a person who eats at Chick-fil-A hates gay people he is mistaken. Does he also think that a person who eats pork hates Jewish people? Hope he finds some way to end his hatred of other people then maybe he could be a better host on his show.

I grew-up finding that I enjoyed seeing what other folks liked too do with there time and energy….many folks could not come to acknowledge that they watched and enjoyed TV shows. That changed when I found out about “Bravo” and their cloning of their one trick pony show(Housewives of “wherever”)! I found it to be terrible(if a women’s based network insisted on producing such hateful shows based on Gay men’s stereotypes I believe that network would be ripped in the media)! Yet these sinister hateful typecast that Anti Clone(AC) produces over and over again he’s seen as an innovator. Strange world..
